A novel method to manipulate the inner structure of cells connects several scientific fields and could represent a significant step in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's ...

Tokyo, Japan - Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have successfully determined the high-resolution three-dimensional structure of proteins inside living eukaryotic cells. They combined "in ...

For the first time, researchers measured the magnetic pull inside a single bacterium, turning a biological mystery into hard numbers.

In its tomorrow issue, New Scientist reports that researchers at the University of New Mexico (UNM) had a brilliant idea to make bone-marrow biopsies more efficient for patients affected by leukemia.

Researchers developed a protein-based sensor that lets MRI machines visualize molecular activity inside cells, potentially transforming study of cancer and disease.

New research shows how X-Men villain Magneto's super powers could really work. Researchers have made the first observations of biological magnetoreception - live, unaltered cells responding to a ...

One of the most remarkable “sixth” senses in the animal kingdom is magnetoreception – the ability to detect magnetic fields – but exactly how it works remains a mystery. Now, researchers in Japan may ...

The body is alive with electrical activity in the nerves and in the transport of ions between cells, and there can be measurable effects on the body when it is in the presence of a magnetic field.

Researchers in Japan have made the first observations of biological magnetoreception - live, unaltered cells responding to a magnetic field in real time. This discovery is a crucial step in ...
